Data was collected through multiple-choice tests and questionnaires, aimed at evaluating students' learning outcomes, both in terms of learning completeness and the time efficiency in receiving the material. The results indicated a significant improvement in students' learning outcomes after the use of the multimedia Art Culture platform. The paired sample t-test showed a significant difference between the pretest and posttest scores, with a mean score of 45.80 for the pretest and 83.11 for the posttest.
